A translational study for detection of cardiac autonomic neuropathy using fractal features: A bench to bedside approach.

Cardiac autonomic Neuropathy (CAN) is an acute complication of Diabetes mellitus (DM) that does not exhibit overt symptoms in the subclinical stage. Researchers have developed several techniques that have proved to give higher efficiency in classification using software tools. The challenge in implementing the same using hardware for diagnosis fails when classification boundaries are mismatched, as there are more chances of misinterpreting the classes.
